• The rest is shredded by a series of machines and burned under a controlled process.
• The heat is used to boil water which makes steam.

FPL. It is enough to power approximately 30,000 homes each year (327,000,000 kwh in 1993).
• Ash is left after the process. This ash is used as daily. cover on the landfill.
• For every 100 pounds of garbage. that is burned, only 10-20 pounds of ash results.
